  1. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    I suppose so although I don't think that the maintainers do backports of the linux-firmware package (which is where it should go).
    If you want to follow it up, first check if the card is working in...

    [ubuntu] Re: python : Depends: python-minimal

    Good luck, all I can say is that I've never seen that problem before so I think there's a high chance you won't encounter it ever again.
  3. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    No that sounds like a config issue, if this is still mandriva we're talking about I can't help as they use a completly different config layout to debian/ubuntu.
  4. [SOLVED] Re: How to convert 5.1 FLAC to some other format?

    What about the ones from the medibuntu repos, do you know if they have the fix? This might also be connected to the vlc problems as it uses libavcodec as well...
  5. [ubuntu] Re: My Ubuntu Laptop suddenly didn't successfully boot

    Thats interesting, do you also get the kernel trace (the bit before --[ end trace ...) when that happens?
    Dropping into busybox can be the result of several different problems with the root file...
  6. [ubuntu] Re: Full disk encryption with LVM and dual boot?

    Take a look here https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/installation-guide/i386/module-details.html (just scroll down to the section about partitioning) its rather wordy since its based on the debian...
  7. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    It depends if mandriva has an up to date version of the ath9k_htc wireless driver and it may install its firmware in a different place. You can see if there is a firmware package in the mandriva...
  8. [ubuntu] Re: My Ubuntu Laptop suddenly didn't successfully boot

    OK try booting off a live cd and see if you can access your files from there, I think you'll probably have to re-install but I'm rather afraid that your filesystem is severely damaged which would...
  9. [ubuntu] Re: Full disk encryption with LVM and dual boot?

    To be honest if you've no specific reason to got for full-disk encryption you may as well use the standard installer and (on the user setup page) select "require my password to login and decrypt my...
  10. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    Hmm seems to be no firmware package for it right now. . .
    Try downloading http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/dwmw2/linux-firmware.git;a=blob_plain;f=ar7010_1_1.fw;hb=HEAD (save as...
  11. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    I think all you need to do is run the hardware drivers / restricted drivers manager from the system menu and activate any wireless driver you see (which tbh I should've thought of several posts ago).
  12. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    In that case could you open a terminal and copy and past here the output from;

    dmesg|tail
    lsusb
    immediately after you've plugged the adapter in.

    [ubuntu] Re: merge subtitles with a video

    Do you want to 'burn' the subtitles into the video or just have them available as an option?
    For the former you're going to have to re-encode the video so I'd recommend handbrake (from handbrake.fr...
  14. [ubuntu] Re: My Ubuntu Laptop suddenly didn't successfully boot

    Have you tried booting with the older kernel (the third option in the list)?
  15. [SOLVED] Re: How to convert 5.1 FLAC to some other format?

    Try installing handbrake from www.handbrake.fr its a dvd ripper/encoder but if you don't mind re-encoding the video as well it can be set mixdown to stereo.

  16. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    If if works clicking on the network manager applet in the panel will show two lists of available wireless networks (one from the internal chip and one from the usb adapter).

    Does sound from your other programs work correctly?
    Amarok, being a KDE application will use slightly different sound settings to standard ubuntu applications. You can try installing KDE's...

    [ubuntu] Re: root swap and home partition

    Why not simply let the installer decide how big to make the partitions, its best not to customise such things untill you've got an idea of what your useage is likely to be.

    [ubuntu] Re: Hardware Detector/Lister?

    lshw is included in the default install, if you type
    sudo lshw -html > hw.html into a terminal it will create a html file called hw.html with a nicely layed-out, detailed hardware list.
  21. [ubuntu] Re: Atheros wireless usb adapter(Sorry for trying again )

    The page you link to looks rather outdated since it refers to kernel 2.6.30 (maverick is on .35) and tbh you're not going to have much luck following a gentoo howto on ubuntu. Gentoo is compiled from...
  22. [ubuntu] Re: Full disk encryption with LVM and dual boot?

    To be honest I don't really see that much of an advantge over the using the alternate cd and just encrypting your home partition (or just encrypting your home directory which is offered by the live...

    [ubuntu] Re: python : Depends: python-minimal

    The python versions in question come from the official -updates repo not from any ppa's so the disabling of ppa's shouldn't make any difference.

    The correct way to clean the package cache is using...

    [ubuntu] Re: python : Depends: python-minimal

    OK it looks to me like you've had an interrupted upgrade of the python packages (they should all be upgraded at once to avoid this kind of situation).
    I think the best thing to do now would be to...
